Engagement for plan change


A public meeting will be held at the Mahurangi East Community Centre to give information and collect feedback on a proposed zone change to land in Snells Beach.

The proposal is to change the zoning from ‘residential large lot’ to ‘residential single house’, so potentially 52 housing lots can be created off Foster Crescent.

B&A Urban & Environmental senior associate Burnette O’Connor says her client requires an Auckland Unitary Plan change to do this and that consultation is the first stage in this process.

“A plan change to Auckland Council is ideally informed by a degree of consultation with affected and interested parties,” Burnette says. “This is the stage we are at with this proposal. The application has not yet been completed, and has not been lodged with Council.”

The meeting will be held on August 16 from 6pm to 7.30pm.
